i went to my high school football game the other night
our school's stands across from the other school's, everyone screaming, jumping, cheerleaders dancing, the cycle of us cheering and then the other team cheering, watching people on the field develop CTE and other injuries that will cause pain for months
people will go to these games not even to watch the sport, but just because it is their school and some friends will be there
i felt like a dumb monkey and will never go to another game
it felt like i was disrespecting myself just by being there
how do people enjoy this?

i agree many people political opinions are tied to their emotions, or will be swayed by a basic appeal to emotion
In Soccer, we call the public the 12th player. Because by their chants and songs, they can motivate the player. We show to the players we're here, and that we support what they do, by hoping they do even better for us.

You hate triablism in sports fans, not triablism.
If you criticize triablism, when you do it, by definition of it.
Not by instances, just imagine trablism was a function, and the argument was a set of people.
You can't say T(x1) = T(x2), but here are common trains in T(xn).
Anyways, ignoring logical jargon.
Yeah same I hate tribalism in sports, just watching men kick ball, all day.
>people will go to these games not even to watch the sport, but just because it is their school and some friends will be there
How awful!
Don't mess with my tribe, I'll bite your toes!
ask Enforcers in icehockey ...

The difference between everyone cheering and the people on the field getting injured is kinda wild ;p
Tribalism is most pertinent in politics.
